collapse expand iconDescription

The Chapman ML1 Modern Standard electric guitar is a simple yet elegant powerhouse, with a meticulously stained and satin-finished ash top. It has an alder body for clear sound with strong mids and excellent lows, paired with a C-shaped maple neck and macassar ebony fingerboard. The ML1 Modern Standard’s voice is powered by a duo of ceramic Chapman Sonorous Zerø humbuckers, delivering every blow clearly, with master volume and push-pull tone controls, and a 3-way pickup switch for additional sound shaping. Additional appointments include rolled fingerboard edges, pearl inlays, nickel frets and Chapman Classic closed tuners.
